Talk:TU Wien

I see little point in having an exhaustive listing of institutes and departments in an encylopedia article.

I second that. Folks, this is an encylopedia article, not an organizational directory. What's next, a list of all lecture rooms? Phone and fax numbers of each department? Take a look at other university articles and think about what content you would expect as a user of Wikipedia. Poxy 09:02, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with that too! Maybe we could have an area of what the university is actually famous for (like what kinda research they do)...

I disagree. Universities define themselves by their faculties - these are their scaffolds. I think it does make sense to have this in the article.

I'm going to work there this summer, are there any good beaches nearby? -> nope, sorry, no beaches in vienna. you take a train to the nearby neusiedlersee, or go west to experience mountains.

the list of notable alumni is a shame
